Governors Ball 2015 Artist Spotlight – J. Roddy Watson & the Business

I wasn’t shit-faced yet when we saw J. Roddy Watson & the Business play Willie Nelson’s ranch but I was damn close when I dragged Danny and Aimee from the shoreline ease to see the last few songs of their set in Philly opening for the ‘Mats recently so I feel comfortable telling you that this reckless rabbit and his rabid raggle do the chainlink Country BlueGrass Blues bar bit with some wildly infectious abandon that makes me wish I had the cajones to just hop on a chopper and ride wild through the Badlands catching bullets in my teeth and the rare “exceptions” of Go-Go Dancers because…man…wouldn’t that just be the American dream?

But I can’t even start a Prius so all I’ve got is this coot and his (not quite, but close enough for cowgirls) crazily catchable outlaw tunes.

Here’s “Take It as It Comes”:

J. Roddy Watson & the Business play Saturday, 6.6 at 2:15pm on the Big Apple Stage.
